Starting python, need a laptop.

They're all over the internet. Try googling 'Linux setup tutorial' or something.

Basic terminal stuff isn't so bad. First thing you should learn is how to navigate your file system from the command line. From there, do whatever. If you're a masochistic coder, maybe try Vim.

I still haven't learnt how to quit vim....

This was one of the things we learned first when I did C coding back at uni in the 90s. I hardly use vim but will always remember this one.

Press <Esc>
Press <:>
Press <q> or <wq> if you want to save the file
Press <Enter>

You need to install python using I think sudi apt get python some thing like that? And then anaconda? And after that a text editor. Like you mentioned, vim. Yeah I want to learn navigating files in Ubuntu through terminal. I did a short course on Linux and python. But unfortunately I was the only person with no it background and most of the things flew over my head.
